What is the issue you’re encountering

I would like to know if Cloudflare now supports (or if not, what are the plans) DNAME records that would greatly simplify having equivalent domain names (e.g. mydomain.com, mydomain.net)

What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?

  • Searched for a way to ask Cloudflare directly, but being on the free plan, it does not seem like I’m able to.
  • Search previous community posts, found this one from 2022: How to add a DNAME DNS record? with a response from Cloudflare stating [quote=“DNAME Records on Cloudflare, post:2, topic:16642”]
    We don’t currently support DNAME. Something we have discussed, but I don’t believe is on the current short term roadmap.

What feature, service or problem is this related to?

DNS records

What are the steps to reproduce the issue?

  • Add a DNS record
  • Try to find the DNAME identifier in the list of available record types
  • no luck…

Screenshot of the error

Unfortunately, Cloudflare does not support DNAME record for now and is not on the current short-term roadmap. However, you can refer to the documentation here for the incoming updates: DNS record types · Cloudflare DNS docs
